Perl 5.14, building on the experimental parser hook mechanism of 5.12, introduces revolutionary new facilities for extension modules to add new syntax to Perl. This talk, by the author of the new facilities, will look at how to use them effectively. It's a lot easier than last year's shenanigans with 5.12, but still requires writing XS.

Relevant CPAN module: Devel::CallParser.
